2011 Honda CBR250 R

Choose your trim:
Ride your CBR250R on a virtual world tour!

It's finally here! The bike Canadian riders have been clamouring for since the introduction of the wildly popular CBR125R has finally been unveiled to the world. And it's a stunner. The all-new Honda CBR250RA is far removed from the sort of cut-corners, parts-bin special often found in this class – it's a true Honda sportbike loaded with sophisticated engineering and high-tech components. Check out the high-revving DOHC, single-cylinder, fuel-injected engine with its impressive power-to-weight ratio, the sensuous VFR1200-style bodywork, and the sporty chassis with Honda's Combined Braking System with ABS – the first Anti-lock Braking System ever on a bike in this class. It's all top-shelf stuff. Sure, the CBR250RA's light weight, user-friendly operation and comfortable size make it perfect for novice riders or those stepping up from the CBR125R. But if experienced riders overlook the CBR250RA because they think engine displacement is the sole measure of a motorcycle's appeal, then they'll be missing out on a bike that's destined to redefine fun on two wheels.

DRIVETRAIN

S  Transmission: Six-speed

S  Final drive: O-ring-sealed chain

ENGINE/DRIVETRAIN

S  The engine countershaft sits lower than the mainshaft in a "stacked" formation to further reduce the engine's front-to-back dimensions.

S  Bore and stroke measurements are equivalent to those of the CBR1000RRA's high-performance engine.

S  The crankshaft runs in plain bearings for quieter operation and the big end of the connecting rod spins in a needle bearing, both contributing to the engine's high-performance credentials.

S  A gear-driven counterbalance shaft helps quell engine vibration for enhanced rider comfort. It's located so close to the crankshaft that the balancer weight passes between the two crank weights to keep the engine as compact as possible while improving mass centralization.

S  Honda's Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) continuously monitors several variables to ensure the correct fuel mixture for the current riding and atmospheric conditions, thereby delivering optimal performance and remarkably crisp throttle response over a wide range of operating conditions, plus improved fuel economy.

S  The PGM-FI system incorporates an Idle Air Control Valve (IACV) to smooth responses to small changes in throttle position.

S  The six-speed transmission works in concert with the engine's broad power delivery to produce quick acceleration plus excellent fuel economy during highway cruising.

S  The all-new 249 cc single-cylinder engine has been purpose-built for the CBR250R, and boasts such high-performance features as dual overhead camshafts driven by a Hy-Vo-type silent chain, forked roller rocker arms, a compact four-valve cylinder head, a counterbalance shaft, and liquid cooling.

S  The light and compact engine contributes to the CBR250R's nimble steering, intuitive handling and impressive power-to-weight ratio, which allows it to outperform twin-cylinder bikes of similar displacement.

S  Shim-style valve adjustment allows easy inspection and maintenance.

S  The engine produces a remarkably broad torque curve for strong low-rpm performance, and peak horsepower kicks in at 8,500 rpm—well before the 10,500-rpm redline. This wide spread of power makes the CBR250R easy and confidence-inspiring to ride, in both stop-and-go situations and on the highway, while also returning impressive fuel economy.

S  The CBR250R's engine meets both EPA 49-state and Euro-3 emissions standards by incorporating the latest in exhaust and catalyzer technology. The tri-metal catalytic converter reduces the level of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and nitrous oxides, while an oxygen sensor in the exhaust enables the engine's Electronic Control Unit to ensure complete combustion within the engine.
